Pullaby: A Quiet, Local-First Smart Home
Pullaby is developing home-automation hardware designed to keep lights and sensors working locally, without cloud accounts or subscriptions.
Field notes
Pullaby places automation decisions inside a local hub rather than routing routine actions through a remote service. Its stated architecture combines BLE Mesh for sensors and switches with a Linux-based hub, MQTT over TLS, and signed over-the-air images that the device verifies before installation. The first hub revision is described as running through the team’s release pipeline, while hardware for the sensor line is still next in development. Early access is requested by email.
